    Fantastic video! I love these analysis videos. And you perfectly summed up why The Midnight is my favorite synthwave band. Everything is just so pleasing to listen to.

    This breakdown was amazing! I'm stunned to learn The Midnight are selling their stems! That is so cool!

    Thanks! Yeah they've been doing it for quite a while. It would be cool if more artists did that. There's just so much to learn from isolating the tracks and inspecting them 🤓

    @@SynthwaveDojo Oh for sure! I have my fair share of (non-synthwave) stems and tracks. Very insightful. I actually found some from Gunship! Wish it was from a song, or songs from their first album tho...

    Happy to help! In case you didn't know, I have a 9 lesson synthesis course over on my platform where I use GR8 exclusively. Enjoy! synthwavedojo.com/courses/sound-design-with-gr-8-by-phuturetone/

    If anyone is interested, The Midnight himself has a masterclass/course in Sonic Academy :D

    Thanks! Unfortunately in that course Tim doesn't explain pretty much anything related to how and why like I'm doing here. He just says 'here's the bassline, here's the drum pattern, here's the patch I used".

    Not sure if the waveform of the first arp is a saw maybe its a wavetable and it sounds a bit more detune. But otherwise I really enjoyed how you approach the sound designs in his video.

    In the Massive 5th Pad, isn't one of the oscillators tuned up a 5th?

    Great observation! It's not relevant if you play all the notes manually 😉
